The Turner family of broadcasting companies shares a site in Midtown Atlanta, known as the Techwood Campus. This property is the original birth place of CNN as well as the present home of the Turner Entertainment Group?s well-recognized brands, including TNT, TBS, TCM, Cartoon Network, etc.

Turner Properties is responsible for maximizing the use of this valuable site and meeting the ever-expanding needs of the business units who call Techwood home. In order to ensure the efficient long-term utilization of the site, Turner Properties asked Syska Hennessy Group to prepare a 20-year utilities master plan for the 35-acre campus, planning for growth from the existing 300,000 sq.ft. to more than 1.5 million in the future.

The Atlanta landscape architecture firm of Hughes, Good, O?Leary & Ryan designed the intnesive greenroof plantings, located over structure.
